Episode 4: Teaching in an Age of Plague

How is the Covid-19 pandemic impacting higher education? What are some of the unique challenges and problems teachers and students are facing as a result of the pandemic? What are some of the solutions and strategies that teachers are developing and using to redress these challenges and problems? What new technologies are students and teachers integrating into the classroom to overcome spatial barriers? How might the Covid-19 pandemic indelibly change the way we imagine the city, the classroom, and public and private spaces in US cities?

The Contagion Podcast addresses these important questions in the 4th episode as Harold Morales, Director of the Center for the Study of Religion and the City, Kayla Wheeler, Faye Wing, Christina Rosetti , co-hosts Sher Afgan Tareen and Amanda Furiasse join the podcast to discuss their experiences being both a student and teacher in higher education during the Covid-19 pandemic and the larger trajectory of higher education and the city.
